Stand For You Poem by Alyssa Ray

She starts hitting him
I come to witness this
I shove her against the wall
And tell her to stop
He's in pain
She doesn't listen to me
And goes for him again
I shove her against the wall
Once more
And scream at her
She doesn't hear my desperate screams
I feel his pain
The one I love
Is hurting
So much
His tears hurt me
As they fall
I can't stand that
She hits him with her bag
Full of books for school
I shove her against the wall again
I hear his wail
It hurts me so bad
The supervisor comes out
And tells me leave
I don't feel as if I could
I'm on the verge of tears;
Almost crying with him
He tells me to leave again
I nod and shove myself away
I can't look any of them
I don't want to look back
Him; Crying in pain
Her; Makes me want to punch
I close my eyes
And want to forget
But can't
I can't help but feel
This is all my fault
I want to get her back
And help him up
But I cna't turn back
because I know I'll do something
I'll regret
And I can't keep myself Regretting everything
So I think of him constantly
Hoping he's okay
As I tear myself apart
And tell myself, I'll be okay
I can't keep myself but seeing
How it's all my fault
And how I'll stand for you
When you're down
